I thought the same thing at first (I was in the MCW camp)...but now I believe we have a top 10 player in the association. Maybe top 5 in a year or so.
You need more than one star to win in the NBA.

Couple that with enough guard talent around him, we are a rebounder away from seriously contending in the next 2 years. Adjust the touches to feature Davis more and we near the top of the association.
We can be a nice team in 2 years. We're miles away and with limited roster flexibilty from being a serious contender.

Yeah,but Davis is more than just a "star" he's a superstar in the making. There is enough guard talent to compete.

I disagree. Anthony Davis if he continues on pace will be a top 3 player in the league in two years, the guards are more than enough. It's simply about getting a solid back up big.
Truth be told, if AD could develop into "enough of a 5" to at least negate the natural advantages the Howards,Gasols,Hibberts and Lopezes of the world, than the Pels are in good shape.

This by all accounts bizarre roster that has only played a handful of games together has a top 10 offense right now. The defense is troublesome, but a pterodactyl with a jet pack is patrolling the paint and he is still learning.
They aren't contenders, but there is a seed of a very good team here.
That said, I will be shocked if 2 of Anderson, Evans, Gordon, Holiday are still with the team by the time Davis signs his extension. They've got their alpha dog, but all those guys are 3rd bananas at best.
